Okay. I VERY much want to know what inspire Michael to go with Pride and Prejudice, because my immediate theory that he confused it with Pride and Prejudice and Zombies apparently doesn't work with the timeline.
Also, WHOA. Very Darcy-esque, and also a big moment for Jim and Pam. Romantic!

Dang yo. Good use of the Austen! Especially the timing of the quote.

So this is going to be a cumulative review - so sorry, but I've been really busy! I'd love to leave a review on every chapter but it's easier to do a drive-by at this point.
No objections to skipping some S3 angst - I'm all aboard.
It's really nice to get into the heads of Jim and Pam in canon - as much as I love a S3 fixit it's always interesting to see how different people have the characters justify their thoughts and actions.
I'm excited to hear the happiness is approaching, you've done a great job with this so far so I'm looking forward to seeing some fluff too.
Author's Response: Thank you!! It’s been a super hot minute since I’ve written anything and following canon was the easiest way for me to break back into it. I’m happy with how it’s been turning out but I’ve definitely caught the bug and want to write more, especially some stories that diverge from the “script”. Thanks for reading! :)

“the rest of the day continued to make her slowly shrink into the sweater her mom had made her” This is such a great way of describing how Pam would be feeling during The Merger.
Oh. Wow. Okay. I can’t believe you’re giving me Pride & Prejudice feels on top of JAM feels. All. The. Feels. I love it so much.
Author's Response: Jim Halpert and Mr. Darcy are definitely on my list when it comes to the fictional character “Who Would You Do”? So how could I not put them in a chapter together?! ;) Thank you!

Oh this was delightful! Nice time jump to get us forward of all the Roy tries to beat up Pam stuff. Seems Jim's heart has had a little time to heal since the last chapter too. Right after the wedding there's no way he would pull that kind of thing.
Now however it seems his heart is pulling him closer to where it truly belongs. Loved it!
Also loved that Pam had the courage to sit down next to him. After everything it could be easy for her to avoid him. She's not. She still feels there's a chance and she's trying to take it. Fancy New Beesly here. Just a small dose, but sometime small is enough.
Have I said that I loved this chapter yet?
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I think this has been my favorite chapter so far.
